NOTE: Multiple computer systems may watch the Viewer simultaneously. Viewer refresh
rate greatly depends on the available resources on the LAN. With each connection to
the Viewer or excessive strain on the LAN system such as network dependent
software programs, the refresh rate will suffer. The remote viewer will function
best when only one computer is directly linked to the DVR.
